<Stouter hull construction, heavier displacement, positive flotation,
stronger rig. Roger's suggestions make sense. One could also build a
platform to seal off the cockpit at the seat level like the filler cushions
do. The boat would probably fair well, but the ride may be a bit rough on
the occupants?>

The large cockpit and the transom hung rudder make the Rhodes an
unsuitable/unlikely candidate for ocean cruising.  Don't think about it!
